View Full Version : 1/2 Newbie - Spectator Question

I have read through everything I can find, and my head is spinning. I am running the 1/2, starting in the last corral. I have a husband and an infant that will be along for the ride, although I'm letting them sleep in :) Ideally, I'd like them to get a chance to see me once during the race, and at the finish. Questions are:

1) Where is the "best" place to tell them to watch me during the race, keeping in mind there is a stroller involved?

2) Can family members even see the finish line if they didn't pay for the special seats? If so, how does this work, and is it feasible, given #1 (and the aforementioned stroller...)

I should add, we are staying at ASSp, and we have our own car, if that helps. If your advice is to rely on Disney transportation, we'll take that too!

And last, they won't need tickets to get into the parks to watch, right?

Thank you in advance!

There's a spectator location/planning tool available here.

If they want to see you on the course, they could probably swing it at mile 5.3 (the castle) or 8.1 (Polynesian), before heading back down to Epcot to see you at the finish.

Thank you so much! That was just what I was looking for.
